You can read a code if there is one stored without the CEL being on. I think it takes the PCM seeing the same code 3 times within a certain timeframe to trip the CEL. So if it's only tripped the code once or twice the light won't be on but the code will be there. I've done it before myself. If you've tried several different code readers and cannot get a code, try the key trick. Turn the key on/off/on/off/on and the codes will display on the odometer depending on the year of your truck.
